. >> well, president obama yesterday told the pbs news hour that the syrian government is in fact responsible for a chemical weapons attack that left hundreds dead. u.s. officials told the associated press that the intelligence on the august 21st attack is "no slam dunk." a reference to the word that george tennent used to lead up to the iraq war. the evidence was they are not certain it was carried out under the orders of syrian president bashar al-assad. despite the mixed assessment, they tweeted this message five days after the attack. haunting images of families dead in their bed. the verdict is clear, assad used cwf against the civilians. the same day, her predecessor and currently national security adviser susan rice said only the regime has the capacity to conduct this with rockets. meanwhile, they took the step of releasing the intelligence assessment with reports that assad was highly likely responsible for the chemical weapons attack. joining me, the chief of staff at the cia, jeremy, there are so many questions here, but given your expertise in the field, how certain can we be abou

she did so officially in an interview that will air later tonight on pbs. >> as of today, i am not in favor of what i have learned about it. and there's one other element i want to make, because i think it's important. trade agreements don't happen in a vacuum. and in order for us to have a competitive economy in the global marketplace, there are things we need to do here at home. >> of course this is a huge departure from the obama administration. as secretary of state, she was firmly aligned with the deal. and in fact called the preliminary negotiations of tpp, the gold standard for trade agreements. now she joins bernie sanders and martin o'malley on the democratic side in opposition to this trade agreement. the republicans, if you're keeping score, the field is split on this deal. donald trump and ben carson have come out firmly against the deal. jeb bush and marco rubio are firmly for it. fiorina, still on the fence. kristin welker has been with the clinton campaign all day. she's in mt. vernon, iowa. they've put out a long explanation on this, but no matter what, there are a lot
